I encourage lots of Republicans to become Independents. Then, in 2014 and 2016, the GOP brass can have lots of fun ignoring the fact that the vast majority of new Independents are just ashamed Republicans. And then the rest of us can have lots of fun laughing at them when their internal models fail.

Soup4Bonnie:I don't get the attraction to her. She's a fat idiot with a lot of money and a Senator daddy. It's not like she is the bright future of the GOP. She's about as deep as the kiddy pool at the YMCA.

She's the GOP's plan for appealing to young people. Their whole plan is: 'Hey young people! Look at this pretty, young, rich, white person (who is also an asshole). If they want the same thing that the rich, old white people (who are also assholes, only moreso) want, our agenda can't be all bad, right? Vote Republican! Still not sold? Well what if we said the pretty, young, rich, white person only hates gays a little? Does that make it more sympathetic? No? Well then I'm going to need to see 3 forms of identification before you vote.'

I know I'm not the first to say it, but registering as an independent is irrelevant when you're just going to vote Republican anyway.It's like breaking up with an abusive husband but still stopping by to screw him whenever he calls. Pointless.
